I suspect that. In fact, I think I'm going to just save the internal
widget and create a new window every time I press the hotkey.
It is a guake clone written in Vala, using Gtk3. I'm using libkeybinder
to detect a global key. It is the same library used by guake and
terminator, but they use Gtk2. I also implemented a guake mode in
terminator, but had to do some tricks to ensure that the window received
the focus on those same cases when my vala code fails (I use a
show-hide-show scheme, that seems to guarantee that the window receives
the focus; but it seems to work only with gtk2, but not gtk3).

That's right. I'm using debian sid.

No, AFAIK.

Yes, everything works fine.
